FOREWORD
Club Car golf cars are designed and built to provide maximum efficiency and performance. However, proper
maintenance and repair is essential for achieving maximum service life and continued safe and reliable oper-
ation of the vehicle. This Maintenance and Service Manual will provide the mechanic with proper detailed
procedures for the maintenance and repair of the Club Car DS Golf Car, including periodic maintenance,
troubleshooting, disassembly, repair, and reassembly of all vehicle components. This manual should be thor-
oughly studied prior to servicing the vehicle. The procedures provided must be properly implemented, and
the NOTE, CAUTION, WARNING, and DANGER statements must be heeded.
This manual was written for the vehicle mechanic who already posseses basic knowledge and skills in elec-
trical and mechanical repair.
If the mechanic does not have such basic knowledge and skills, attempted ser-
vice or repairs to the vehicle may render it unsafe.
For this reason, we advise that all repairs and/or service
be performed by an authorized Club Car distributor’s/dealer’s representative or by a Club Car factory trained
mechanic.
It is the policy of Club Car, Incorporated to assist its distributors and dealers in continually updating their ser-
vice knowledge and facilities so that they can provide prompt and efficient service for the vehicle owner.
Regional technical representatives, golf car service seminars, periodic service bulletins, this manual, and
other service publications also represent Club Car’s continuing commitment to customer support.
This service manual covers all aspects of DS Golf Car service. However, unique situations do sometimes
arise when servicing a golf car. If it appears that a service question is not answered in this manual, you may
write to us or contact a Club Car technical service representative by phone at (706) 863-3000, ext. 3580.
